our fathers. In personal appearance he
resembled George Washington, the father
of our country, and in all the attributes
of manhood he was the peer of General
Lee. as good if not better soldier, of
equal intelligence, the same kind of heart
beloved to idolatry by his Army of the
Cumberland, exercising a gentle, but
strict discipline, never disturbed by false
rumors of real danger, not naturally ag-
gressive. but magnificent on the defen'
slve; almost the very counterpart of his
friend. General Lee, but far excelling him
in the moral and patriotic line of action
at the beginning of the war. Lee resigned
his commisson when civil war was certain
but Thomas remained true to his oath
and his duty. always to the very last
minute of his life. During the whole war
his services were transcendent. winning

West in 1862 "a, and finally, Dec. 16,

these battles will General Wolseley pre-
tend there was such inequality of
numbers as he refers to in the East.
England, and even some of our East
ern States, seem not to realize that the
strength of our country lies west of the
Alleghanies. They still see only the war
in Virginia, and, at fnrthest, Gettysburg.
The civil war concluded when Vicks-
burg, Chattanooga and Atlanta fell.
After these it only remained to dispose
of Lees army, which was promptly and
scientifically done. Had General Wolse.
ley met GLneral Thomas at Chattanooga
in 1864 his quick. discerning mind would
have reached another conclusion. He
| would have doubted whether a single
corps, with the best staff which Aldershot
| turns out, could have turned the scale
after the year 1862.
OF all governments on earth, England
| is the last to encourage rebellion against
lawful authority, and of all men in Eng
land. General Wolseley IS the last who
should justify and uphold treason. Ire
land to-day has many times the cause to
| rebel against England which the South
had In 1851, and when some future En-
met manifests the transcendent qualities
| which scintillate and sparkle IN the Irish
character, and some enthusiastic Ameri-
can applauds him and awards him ma
tional honors, then will General Wolse-
lev, or his successor in Office, understand
the feelings of us in America, who,
though silent, watch the worlds pro-
gress toward the conclusion in which
truth and justice must stand triumphant
over treachery and wrong. When the
time comes to award monuments for SER
vice in the civil war the American peo-
pie will be fully prepared to select the

Military neEOc6s
The following extract from Gen. Sher-
mans article in che North American Re-
view in reply to Lord Wolseley is pointed
and contains so many grams OF truth that
we deem it worthy the examination Of
every student of history and patriotic son
of America:
..Lee unquestionably took the oath to
Virginia and the command Of her army
and navy, then myth, but it is pop:
ular belief that he never took the oath of
when General johnson was wounded and
disabled at Fair Oaks June /, 1852, Gen
eral Lee did succeed him, and did com
mand the army of Northern Virginia un.
der the Confederate Government till the
end at Appomattox. His sphere of action
was, however, local. He never rose to
the grand problem which involved CONT
nent and future generations. His Vlr-
oinia was to him the world. Though
familiar with the geography of the inte-
riOr of this great continent, he stood like
stone wall to defend Virginia against
the "Huns and Goths" of the North,
and he did it like valiant knight, as he
was. He stood at the front porch bat.
tling with the flames while the kitchen and
house were burning, sure in the end to
consume the whole. Only twice, at An.
tietam, and Gettysburg, did he venture
outside of the offensive defensive In
the first instance he knew personally his
antagonist. and that large fraction Of
his force would be held in reserve; in the
last he assumed the bold offensive" was
badly beaten by Meade and forced to re-
treat back to- Virginia. As On aggressive
soldier Lee was not q success. and In
war that is the true and proper test.
''Nothing succeeds like success. q In de-
Tending Virginia and Richmond he did all
man could, but to him Virginia seemed
the .'Confederacy," and he stayed there
while the Northern armies at the West
were gaining the Mississippi, the Tennes-
see, the Cumberland, Georgia, South and
North Carolina, yea, the Kosnoke, after
which his military acumen taught him
that further tarrying in Richmond was
absolute suicide. Such 5is the military

An effort will doubtless be made toexcite public
feeling in this country against the Mexicans, and
inferentiany against our own diplomatic authort-
sies for the hanging, at HermOsillo, OF an alleged
American citizen convicted OF murder. The claim
will be made that he had not as much Of a chance
'or his life before the Mexican courts as he would
aave had before those OF his own country In q
measure, there Is ground for such a complaint
The murder was committed In 1855. The sus-
,ected man was tried, found guilty, and sentenced
20 death in June, 1886. and the hanging took place
IN the 22d Of July, 1887. The thirteen months in
servening have been spent In carrying appeals to
the higher courts. How have American conyicts
Jared In their own country, meanwhile? The
most notable murder cases tried here last
year were those OF Brooks, for the killing
Of Preller, and OF the Chicago anarchists
charged with responsibility for the fatal
bonb-throwing at the Haymarket meeting The
anarchists were convicted Just one year ago Sat-
urday, and have enjoyed rather luxurious exist
ence, accompanied with an abundance OF the
notoriety they all crave, ever since. Brooks was
convicted on the 9Th OF June, and is still alive to
tell the tale. with pretty fair prospect OF sur
wing half the persons engaged In his prosecu-
tion- IL Is quite possible, therefore, that If

A curious turn has been given to the affair of
Epskf, who was condemned to death In England
for murder some time ago, by the announcement
that he has confessed his guilt. 1t may be remem-
bered that when the day set for the execution OF
his sentence was almost at hand, the Pail Nall
Gazete published new evidence which seemed to
be conclusive OF the mans innocence 1t pro-
fessed TO have obtained this matter confdentialIy
from the cony1ct'S counsel, and to have broken
faith because 1t regarded a human Life as worth
more than any professional pledge. The Home
Secretary, apparently owing to long-standing
feud between himself and the editor OF the paper
refused TO interfere. The matter was carried to
the Queen herself, who lent a charitable ear to
the appeal, and ordered a respite for the con-
demned. Now, II the news from London may be
believed, having caused all this commotion Lipsk1
suddenly confOunds his friends by admitting the
Justice OF his punishment. 1t Is barely possible
that the story OF the confession is untrue having
been circulated for political purposes. Me. Mat
thews who refused respite and was oyerruled
BY the Queen, has been In trouble so often OF late
that he would probably grasp gladly at any op-
porruntty TO rehabilitate his reputation. On the
other hand, however, 1t Is noteworthy that, for
some cause or other, the proportion OF confessions
by convicts In Great Britain, under the shadow OF
The gallows, Is very much larger than among our
Own people; and whereas an American In Lipskfs
plight would be likely to keep his own counsel
there Is no lack OF precedents for his reported
course In the annals OF crime in the mother
country.
